NY EMT busted for pipe bombs, weapons found in home

Police responded to his home for a domestic dispute and found guns and explosive devices

NEW YORK — A New York City EMT was busted with pipe bombs and an arsenal of weapons in his Brighton Beach home after cops responded to a domestic dispute between him and his wife, authorities said.

Victor Cadicamo, 29, was arrested when police showed up to his home near Brighton 10th Terrace and Coney Island Avenue at around 9 a.m. Thursday after the FDNY worker’s wife said he threatened her with a gun, cops said.

When cops searched Cadicamo’s home, they found five firearms and a rifle before cuffing him and dragging him down the the 60th precinct. Police said the couple’s 2-year-old child was home at the time.
